When a user logs on as USER.ACCT,GROUP,
the current working directory is initialized to /ACCT/GROUP.
If a user creates a hierarchical directory through the FTP/iX MKDIR DIR1
command and then changes to that directory with the FTP/iX CD
command, the new working directory will be /ACCT/GROUP/DIR1.
The current working directory can be identified with the FTP/iX
command PWD. To change directories on the local system, use the FTP/iX
LCD command. The LCD command
will automatically preface (./) to the given name if it does not
start with a dot or a slash. This command identifies the new current
directory. To remove directories, use the FTP/iX rmdir
command. The (./) is prefaced to the given file name if it does
not start with a dot or a slash. The rmdir will not work on MPE/iX groups
or accounts. Likewise, mkdir creates new directories,
not groups or accounts. Note that (.) refers to the current directory, (..) refers
to the directory above the current directory, and (/) is used as
the separator in the path name. Thus if a file name starts with
(.) or (..), the path traversed to find the file is relative to
the current directory, whereas if a file name starts with (/), the
path is independent of the current directory and refers to the absolute
path name. To change to a different directory outside of the FTP/iX subsystem
in the POSIX name space, use the CHDIR command. Commands | |
Changes the process's current working directory (CWD)
on the local system. Syntax CHDIR [ [DIR=]dir_name] [;SHOW | NOSHOW] Parameters - dir_name
The name of the new current directory (optional).
The dir_name is assumed to be an MPE/iX name. HFS-named directories
can be changed if dir_name starts with a dot (.) or a slash (/).
The dir_name may not end in a slash and wild carding is not allowed.
If dir_name is omitted, your logon directory is used. Your logon
directory is your logon group, in the form: /LOGON_ACCOUNT/LOGON_GROUP whereas if you need to change to a different MPE/iX group
name, use the CHGROUP command.
Switches you from the current group to another group within
the logon account to which you are allowed access (NM capability
required). This command is not executable through the FTP command
prompt. Syntax CHGROUP [ [GROUP=]groupname] [/grouppass] Parameters - groupname
The name of the group to which you will be switched.
If you omit this parameter, you will be switched to the home group.
- grouppass
The password of the group you are switching to,
if it is assigned a password. In a session, if the target group
has a password and you fail to supply one on the command line, MPE/iX
will prompt you to enter one. You have three tries to enter the
correct password before the command fails. In a batch job, if the target group has a password and you
fail to supply one, MPE/iX issues an error message "INCORRECT
PASSWORD (CIERR 1441)" and the job fails. In either case, when you switch to your home group, you may
omit the password.
Refer to the MPE/iX Commands Reference Manual
for command syntax and usage. Command Line (CI) Examples | |
Example A-3 Example 1: :showme
USER: #S26,MANAGER.SYS,PUB (NOT IN BREAK) |

:showvar HPCWD
HPCWD = /SYS/PUB |
:showme
USER: #S36,MANAGER.SYS,WORK (NOT IN BREAK) |

Example A-5 Example 3: :showme
USER: #S26,MANAGER.SYS,PUB (NOT IN BREAK) |
:showvar HPCWD
HPCWD = /SYS/PUB |
:chdir /SYS/WORK
CWD is "/SYS/WORK". |

:showvar hpcwd
HPCWD = /SYS/WORK |
FTP Usage Examples | |
Example A-6 Example 1: This is a sample of the operation of the POSIX current working
directory "cwd" and the resulting file domain
on the local system. In this example, the user on the local system,
logged on as "MANAGER.SYS,PUB",
enters FTP and then executes a ":CHDIR /SYS/WORK"
command. The result is the local domain for files, FTP view will
be "/SYS/WORK/"
(POSIX syntax) or "WORK.SYS"
(MPE syntax). :ftp.arpa.sys

ftp> :showvar HPCWD
HPCWD = /SYS/PUB |
ftp> :showme
USER: #S27,MANAGER.SYS,PUB (NOT IN BREAK) |
ftp> :chdir /SYS/WORK
CWD is "/SYS/WORK". |
ftp> :showvar HPCWD
HPCWD = /SYS/WORK |
ftp> :showme
USER: #S27,MANAGER.SYS,PUB (IN PROGRAM) |
Example A-7 Example 2: This is a sample of the operation of the POSIX current working
directory "cwd" and the resulting file domain
on the remote system. In this example, the user connects to the
remote system with FTP, logged on as "MANAGER.SYS,PUB"
and then executes a FTP "cd /SYS/WORK"
command. The result is the remote domain for files FTP will view
will be "/SYS/WORK"
(POSIX syntax) or "WORK.SYS"
(MPE syntax). ftp> pwd
257-"/SYS/PUB" is the current directory.
257 ",MANAGER.SYS,PUB" is the current session. |
ftp> cd /SYS/WORK
250 CWD file action successful. |
ftp> pwd
257-"/SYS/WORK" is the current directory.
257 ",MANAGER.SYS,PUB" is the current session. |
